Gigabyte Rolls Out H81N-D2H Mini-ITX Motherboard

btarunr · Jul 7, 2014

Gigabyte rolled out its latest entry-level socket LGA1150 motherboard in the mini-ITX form-factor, the H81N-D2H. Based on the Intel H81 Express chipset, the board takes in Core "Haswell" and "Devil's Canyon" processors (minus the overclocking support). The board draws power from a combination of 24-pin ATX and 4-pin CPU power connectors, with a 3-phase VRM conditioning power for the CPU. The CPU socket is wired to two DDR3 DIMM slots, and a legacy PCI slot. Storage connectivity includes two each of SATA 6 Gb/s and SATA 3 Gb/s ports. Display outputs include one each of dual-link DVI, D-Sub, and HDMI. PS/2 on the rear panel, LPT and COM (by headers), make up legacy connectivity. Two USB 3.0 ports, and four USB 2.0 ports make up modern connectivity. 6-channel HD audio, and gigabit Ethernet make for the rest of it. The board is driven by UEFI BIOS.

The PCI? probably GB not wanting budget gamers to "abuse" this motherboard's price tag.

So, PCI-Express 2.0 x16 slot for H81 chipset is unavailable. What's going on...

Good job, Gigabyte - the lack of a PCI Express slot just ruined this board for use in any of my builds....
